Chapter 143: Not Going to Kindergarten
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Aunt, we don’t want to go to kindergarten,” the wolf cub expressed firmly, his gaze fixed on Liao Ning as he protected Mili, who shared the same sentiment. He feared that Liao Ning might seize the opportunity to whisk them away and force them into the car headed for kindergarten.
Liao Ning smiled at the two cubs who adamantly resisted attending kindergarten. “Why? I need a valid reason. If you can convince me, I might reconsider sending you to kindergarten.”
These two cubs were destined to become formidable individuals in the future, as their intelligence far surpassed their tender age. Persuading others came naturally to them. In no time, they presented their case to Liao Ning, explaining why they opposed going to kindergarten.
“Aunt, Mili and I have already commenced self-studying the curriculum for third-grade elementary school. I don’t want to spend my days playing games with children at kindergarten!”
Aware that the wolf cub and Mili had been using the computer to teach themselves, Liao Ning was surprised they hadn’t mentioned their ongoing self-study. Raising an eyebrow, she pretended to be displeased. ‘What?! You didn’t inform me until now? Only when you couldn’t conceal it any longer did you decide to share this with me. Am I not deserving of your trust?”
“No, Aunt!” Mili observed Liao Ning’s reaction and hastened to explain, fearing genuine anger from her. “We followed the educational materials from the Star Web. We didn’t intend to keep it a secret from you. We simply wished to acquire knowledge swiftly so that we could assist you and Uncle sooner.”
Witnessing the little girl’s anxious expression, Liao Ning concealed her anger and responded with a gentle tone. “Mili, if I hadn’t discussed this with you today and asked Butler Li to handle the enrollment procedures, what would you have done? Were you planning to keep your self-study of the elementary school curriculum hidden from me?”
“We…” Mili avoided direct eye contact with Liao Ning. Initially, both she and the wolf cub had intended to conceal their progress from their uncle and aunt, planning to surprise them on the day of the elementary school entrance examination. “I’m sorry. We only wanted to surprise you during the entrance
test. ”
“Mili, you haven’t done anything wrong. No need to apologize,” Liao Ning comforted, gently patting her head. “But we are family, and I hope you and Nai Nai can trust me. If you come across any challenges, you can discuss them with me and your uncle. Only then can we devise the perfect plan in the shortest
possible time. Understand?”
Mili let out a sigh of relief as she noticed Liao Ning’s lack of anger. She was well aware that their actions, both hers and Liao Nai’s, had been inappropriate. She nodded obediently, acknowledging their mistake. “It’s our fault. We won’t repeat it. If anything happens, we’ll inform you and Uncle. We’re family!”
“That’s more like it! Since you’ve already mastered the third-grade elementary school curriculum, I won’t insist on sending you to kindergarten. I’ll inform your Young Uncle that if feasible, we’ll arrange for you to take the elementary school entrance test and proceed directly to elementary school,” Liao Ning suggested.
The proposal made the two cubs ecstatic with joy.
The educational system of the Interstellar Space Alliance mirrored the pre-apocalyptic Earth, consisting of kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, and high school. For prodigies like Mili, it was relatively simple to skip grades and enter school. They merely needed to pass a specific examination, disregarding their age.
The wolf cub tugged at the edge of Liao Ning’s shirt, granting her access to his
Al virtual screen. “Aunt, take a look.”
Curiosity piqued, Liao Ning leaned in to examine the screen. She was immediately dazzled by the array of award certificates displayed. “These are
Nai Nai’s certificates? There are so many of them! Nai Nai, you’re incredible!”
“These certificates were obtained by Mili and me through our participation in competitions on the Star Web. While they may not be major contests, the judges involved are highly authoritative,” the wolf cub explained, pointing at the Primary School Mecha Knowledge Competition certificate. “The judges for this competition are all professors from the military academy in the capital. They’re truly exceptional. I gained tremendous knowledge from their guidance.”
Mili nodded in agreement, clearly endorsing Liao Nail s statement.
“Aunt, I have a deep passion for mechas. I aspire to become a soldier skilled in mecha research, just like Dad in the future!” the wolf cub shared enthusiastically.
“Excellent, Nai Nai. I believe you will undoubtedly achieve great heights, just like your father. No, I firmly believe that both you and Mili can become the individuals you aspire to be,” Liao Ning spoke softly, gazing at the two cubs. Upon hearing Liao Ning’s unwavering trust, the faces of the two little ones lit up with radiant smiles..
